It depends on the DMV. Some will help you with this dilemna, and some will tell you to scrap the car, or give it back to the last owner. I would say, have the previous owner apply for a lost title, less than $20.00 in Minnesota, and start over. You may be able to fix this, if you bring the previous owner to the DMV with you to explain what happened. The lost title deal is best, and split the cost with them.
